Connect Meta Ads

Truefold reads your Meta (Facebook / Instagram) campaigns and daily ad-level insights so your paid-social performance can be modeled alongside your store and email data.

Meta connects through Facebook Login — you authorize Truefold and pick which ad account to sync.

Before you start

• Your Facebook user needs Admin or Analyst access to the ad account you want to connect. Without it, the account won't appear in the picker.
• Know which ad account you want to sync (you can change it later).

Steps

1. In Truefold, go to Sources → Add source → Meta Ads → Connect.
2. A Facebook window opens. Log in if prompted and grant access when asked.
3. Back in Truefold, choose the ad account to sync from the list. Inactive or closed accounts are shown greyed-out.
4. That's it — the first sync begins.

Permissions Truefold requests

Truefold requests a single permission, ads_read, which covers both campaign structure and ad-level insights. It's read-only — Truefold can't create, edit, pause, or spend on your ads.

Changing the ad account later

Open the Meta source from Sources, and switch the connected ad account from its detail page — no need to reconnect.

Troubleshooting

• The account picker is empty — your Facebook user isn't an Admin or Analyst on any ad account. Ask an account admin to grant access, then reconnect.
• "Feature unavailable" on the Facebook screen — a temporary Meta-side issue; wait a moment and try again.
